Slack Notifications for Design QA

Get Slack notifications when design QA issues are created or assigned. Each message includes severity, project name, creator, screenshot, and a direct link to view the issue in OverlayQA.

Keep your team in the loop without leaving Slack

Design QA issues get created in OverlayQA, but the rest of the team doesn't find out until the next standup. OverlayQA's Slack integration posts rich Block Kit messages to your team channel the moment an issue is created or assigned. Each message includes severity, project, creator, screenshot, and a "View in OverlayQA" button so anyone can click through to the full issue context.

Non-users see issue activity in Slack and can click through to review without needing an OverlayQA account. The integration connects via OAuth and requires selecting a single channel. Connect once and every new issue or assignment automatically appears in your team's Slack workflow.

How the Slack integration supports your team

• Real-time notifications — Issues and assignments appear in Slack instantly, so developers and PMs stay informed without checking a separate dashboard.
• Rich context in every message — Each notification includes severity, type, project name, creator, screenshot, and a direct link to view the issue.
• Visibility for non-users — Team members who don't use OverlayQA directly still see issue activity in their Slack channel.
• One-click setup — Connect your Slack workspace via OAuth, select a channel, and notifications start flowing.
